Timothy’s 1868 house has been painstakingly restored—by Timothy himself—over the last six years, and its historical charm is accentuated by a selection of furniture and art inspired by both the home’s original ornate details and the Industrial Revolution. If you don’t have hand-carved cypress medallions and 13-foot ceilings, don’t worry: you can still shop the style!
